Cycling

"Sun over Hammershus" is a beautiful route along the west coast of Bornholm. It takes you from Rønne through enchanted forests, past quaint fishing villages and imposing cliffs, up to the majestic castle ruins of Hammershus in the north.

You start in Nordskoven in Rønne North. You'll cycle through a magnificent forest with idyllic forest lakes and mysterious industrial monuments. In Hasle, you can take your first break and explore the lively harbor.

The route then continues along the coast, just a few meters from the sea. The further north you go, the hillier it becomes. In the rugged landscape of the Hammeren Peninsula lies Hammershus Fortress, the largest castle ruin in Northern Europe. It is most beautiful here at sunset.

After enjoying this magical moment at the castle ruins, you cycle back to Rønne. You can either take the direct route and follow the road or cycle back to the starting point the same way you came.

A wonderful path through the forest. The nature is beautiful and it's a real joy to ride here!

Cultivators

Highlight • Natural Monument

An absolute highlight: Due to the coal in the sand and clay, and the generally nutrient-poor soil, nothing grows there. It feels like the moon.

The small harbor is an idyllic spot that invites you to take a break. It's also very popular with sailors.

June 18, 2023,Tag 1 / 1: Einmal rund um Bornholm 🚵‍♀️🏰🏝️
It's actually starting. A few months ago it was just an idea and now I'm putting it into practice: cycling around the island of Bornholm.

From Rønne I follow cycle route 10, which marks the official island circular route. It goes slightly up and down through a forest, on roads and finally along the coast. Everything is super developed and …

Yesterday I took the catamaran ferry from Ystad to Rönne at over 60 km/h. I drove straight to the first campsite in Rönne and met the two cycling brothers Till and Volker from HH there. Volker gave me lots of good tips for the island, as he has been here many times (>30 times 👍). I then cycled to almost …

A pedestrian and bicycle route :) The steed waited politely first under one, then under the other lighthouse - while I was walking through the windy hills :) my-oh-my. But I won't repeat myself - there are gites here.

You have to take your bike and come.

Sacred beautiful discovery with a cycle route that goes around the island and beautiful landscapes. A first little bit when leaving the boat today.

What a tour! The first steep climb in front of Jon's chapel, then we had to walk down well-built wooden steps and then back up again. After the quarry we had to push our bikes again. Then we went back with a strong headwind, but almost always with the sea in sight!
